Intel processors provide uncompromised experience |
Leveraging Intel’s Foveros 3D packaging technology and featuring a hybrid central processing unit architecture for power and performance scalability, Lakefield processors are the smallest to deliver Intel Core performance and full Windows compatibility across productivity and content creation experiences for ultra-light and innovative form factors.
Chris Walker, Intel corporate vice president and general manager of Mobile Client Platforms said, “Intel Core processors with Intel Hybrid Technology are the touchstone of Intel’s vision for advancing the PC industry by taking an experience-based approach to designing silicon with a unique combination of architecture and IPs. Combined with Intel’s deepened co-engineering with our partners, these processors unlock the potential for innovative device categories of the future.”
Intel Core processors with Intel Hybrid Technology deliver full Windows 10 application compatibility in up to a 56 per cent smaller package area for up to 47 per cent smaller board size and extended battery life, providing original equipment manufacturers more flexibility in form factor design across single, dual, and foldable screen devices while delivering the PC experiences people expect.
They are also the first Intel Core processors shipping with attached package-on-package memory, further reducing board size; the first to deliver as low as 2.5MW of standby power – up to 91 per cent reduction compared to Y-series processors – for more time between charges; and the first to feature native dual internal display pipes, making them ideally suited for foldable and dual-screen PCs.
Two announced designs powered by the Intel Core processors with Intel Hybrid Technology and co-engineered with Intel include the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold, the first fully-functional PC with a folding OLED display unveiled at CES 2020 and expected to ship this year, and the Intel-based Samsung Galaxy Book S expected in select markets starting in June.
Intel Core i5 and i3 processors with Intel Hybrid Technology leverage a 10 nanometre Sunny Cove core to take on more intense workloads and foreground applications, while four power-efficient Tremont cores balance power and performance optimisation for background tasks.
The processors are fully compatible with 32- and 64-bit Windows applications, helping reach new heights for the thinnest and lightest designs.
- Smallest package size, enabled by Foveros;
- Hardware-guided OS scheduling;
- More than 2X throughput on Intel UHD for AI-enhanced workloads;
- Up to 1.7 times better graphics performance; and
- Gigabit connectivity.
